Custom Button Badge Pricing Guide Malaysia 2026
The button badge is the cheapest piece of wearable branding there is — pinned to a lanyard, a bag or a uniform, handed out by the hundred at events, fan days and campaigns. Full-colour, collectible and produced fast, it’s a promo staple. But size and the type of back swing the price, and runs are large. Here’s what drives the cost of custom button badges in Malaysia, with indicative ringgit bands by size and quantity.
Quick orientation. All figures below are typical, indicative per-piece ranges in Malaysian ringgit for custom button badges delivered in the Klang Valley — not a quotation. Badges are most economical from around 100 pieces upward.
What sets the price
1. Size. Small 25–32mm badges are cheapest; 44mm is the everyday standard; 58–75mm cost more for the larger surface.
2. Back type. A standard pin is cheapest; magnet, mirror, clip and bottle-opener backs add cost.
3. Quantity. Badges are digitally printed and assembled, so the per-piece price drops sharply with volume.

In-house tip: a 44mm pin is the all-round sweet spot; go bigger only for statement designs, and choose a magnet back if recipients won’t want pinholes. Our button badge buying guide covers sizes and backs.
